Yeast selected on molasses for use in the production of Rum and other molasses-based spirits

• DistilaMax® SR has been selected by UNGDA (Union Nationale des Groupements de Distillateurs d’Alcool, France) in partnership with Lallemand.
• DistilaMax SR can be used on sugar beet molasses, sugar beet juice and also on cane molasses.
• DistilaMax SR is positive for the RTM1 gene, making this strain tolerant to some of the inhibitory toxins that are present in molasses.
• DistilaMax SR displays good osmotic stress resistance, performing well on high solid matrices.
• DistilaMax SR demonstrates a good balance of glucose/ fructose uptake, as well as good stress resistance to sodium, organic acids and high temperatures.

Dosage
The optimal yeast dosage is variable according to individual distillery production processes.
Fermentation of molasses: 0.40 - 0.60 grams per litre of wash or juice (dosage: 400 - 600 ppm).

Storage
DistilaMax SR should be stored in a cool and dry area away from heat and direct sunlight for maximum stability.
Shelf Life: 3 years from date of manufacture if vacuum-seal is not broken.
